3 Months Out

Jun 10, 2010

Haven't written in awhile, just thought I would update my progress.  Well it's now 3 months since my surgery (vsg) and I am feeling great.  I am down 52 lbs and have not been at this weight in years.  My clothes, that's another story they are so big it's hysterical.  I now go by the nickname of "Slim" and "Skinny" by my boyfriend names that were never directed towards me.  Have been going to the gym at least 3 times a week doing cardio and working out with weights.  Doc says he wants me to work with weights so that I am not losing my muscle mass.  Still having a tough time getting all the liquids in, doing my best on that part.  Cannot eat chicken anymore, it just sits right in my chest but have no problem with beef - go figure. 
I go for my first set of labs in a couple of weeks and see the doc in July, hopefully everything is going well with that.
It feels so good to be able to walk up a flight of stairs and not get out of breath or literally pulling myself up the stairs to get to the top. 
So happy with my sleeve - should have done this years ago.  But, better late than never!!
